Honeywell 51204146-030 Process Controller – Experion PKS C200/C200E Series
Imagine a continuous process plant — a refinery, a chemical reactor, or a power generation unit — suddenly losing its primary process controller. Within seconds, critical loops go uncontrolled: temperatures spike, pressures deviate, and safety interlocks begin to cascade. The cost of unplanned downtime in such environments can exceed tens of thousands of dollars per hour. The Honeywell 51204146-030 Experion PKS C200/C200E Controller exists precisely to prevent this scenario — delivering deterministic, high-availability process control that keeps your plant running safely and efficiently.
Within the Experion PKS (Process Knowledge System) platform, the C200/C200E Controller occupies a central role as the primary execution engine for continuous and batch process strategies. The 51204146-030 part number represents a mature, field-proven revision of this controller, widely deployed across oil & gas, refining, chemicals, power, and life sciences industries globally. Its architecture bridges legacy DCS reliability with modern Ethernet-based communication, making it a cornerstone of Honeywell’s distributed control ecosystem.
